The effect of medication on urine fertilisers?

I've heard much talk about the glowing benefits of urine as fertiliser, usually diluted of course. However, I have often wondered how ones diet affects the quality of urine fertiliser, as well as perhaps more importantly, how the supplements and medication one takes impact the urine.
I know that after my morning multivitamin my piss turns fluro yellow, apparantly due to excess vitamin B3 (or one of the Bs). Are these extra vitamins and minerals in the urine are beneficial or harmful, and what about the overall pH?
Furthermore, what about meds? I admit to regularly take dexamphetamine. It helps in many ways but I hope to ween myself off at some point. How do amphetamines impact the urine quality? What about other medication, there must be heaps to consider. Also antibiotics, or if someone is sick, does this need to be considered?
I also take the supplement L-Tyrosine, a precursor to Dopamine. I take this as an attempt to support my overall dopamine levels that are drained by regular dexamphetamine use. Given dopamine is a precursor to the holy active content in some cacti, could this in someway make the urine help increase the potency of the pant?
Thoughts?

Is it really that hard, or expensive to by a nitrogen fertilizer? I feel it to be pointless unless you are absolutely broke, maybe homeless. Even then I think you could ask for coffee grounds at like Starbucks and shit. I don't know but that's just me. But remember what they ingest, you will surely ingest, e.g. pesticides so, you know.

It was a question ot of interest, not neccesity. I have the chemical fertilisers, and the slow release, and the organics. But each time i flush the toilet for a simple piss, I am conscious of the tremendous waste involved, not just of the potential fertiliser but of the water for the flush, and then the resources involved in processing the waste. In my state (western australia) we have a constant water shortage. Why then should we be literally pissing away limited resources?

human urine is a poor fertilizer. if you eat meat at all, (protein in general really) your urine is full of uric acid. uric acid will build up in your soil unless you flush it with loads of water. this is the same reason that dog crap turns your lawn yellow. acidity

Do what I do, pee outside. No waste. Or when it's light out, don't flush a number 1. Problem solved.
